    I couldn't even begin to guess the grade based on those pics. But since you say you are buried in the coin, I'll guess you bought it pretty close to 1989.

    Based on the little bit that I can see in the images, my grade guess is MS64.

    Then I don't understand why you would say you're buried in the coin. Usually that means that it is currently worth much less than what you paid for it. And if you bought it in '94, then it should be worth more than you paid for it.

    What did you pay for it ?

    I can see it pulling an MS64. It's impossible to say from pics.

    1906 was the first year of the Denver mint's operations.
    Apparently they got state-of-the-art equipment, as these 1906-D $10s can be very well struck and lustrous. My type coin is a 1906-D $10.

    I can only say high grade. I'm terrible with high grades. MS66?

    The strike is very nice...i'm still terrible at grading, especially gold, but I'm gonna say 65 because I don't see many scratches.

    When I first saw the photos, I thought MS64. With your comment, I am guessing it's lower.
    *Sheesh. I didn't go to page 2 again. Okay, a little explanation about being buried in the coin, please.*

    Isn't the slab old enough that an upgrade is likely?

    ...Yeah that's a rattler. I'd guess it would fetch a decent premium, it's really nice.

    i paid $10,890 for this MS65 coin. on the same day i also bought an MS64 coin (same date) for $5100.

    two days before the market crash i was offered $15,000 for the 65 coin and $6500 for the 64 coin.anyhow, i still own these two coin today.
